Our First Snowfall Of The Season!!!

Today we woke up to 6 inches of snow and 17 degree temperatures. Taylor looked outside and looked a bit concerned since she doesn't remember all the snow we had last year. She looked outside and said, "Ooh"...pause..."Pretty"...after starting a fire and having a nice warm breakfast, I bundled Taylor up and we ventured outside. Can you remember when you were a kid and your Mother bundled you up to the point where you couldn't move?!?! Well, I am now THAT kind of Mother. It was only 30 degrees outside and I didn't want her to get cold, so she was layered, and layered good!!! She looked like a stuffed penguin and waddled as she walked. At first she wasn't too sure of the snow, but after watching the dogs romp around and a few times around the yard in her sled, she was a happy girl and had fun playing in the snow. She played and I shoveled and when it was time to come inside she sure made it known that she wasn't ready to go in. Rain or shine, snow or wind, she loves being outside. It's still snowing and the temperature hasn't been above freezing yet today. The local forecast is calling for up to a foot of snow...good thing we have a lot of wood and some Moon Sand to play with!!!


All dressed and ready to go outside...




Not 100% sure about the snow...after a few minutes of being outside, she warmed up to the idea and had a lot of fun.
